Nokia was forced to issue an apology and add a disclaimer to the video after The Verge noticed that 27 seconds into the video a reflection in a caravan window showed the footage was not being filmed by the friend on their phone, but was instead being filmed on a camera in a van.

Nurmi spoke to the media as part of the press conference and it has been reported his role at Nokia meant he was ultimately responsible for the faked video.

Nokia declined to comment further on this.

Despite the controversy over the faked video, the Lumia 920 has received rave reviews from critics, but the press launch disappointed analysts due to the lack of a launch date and the omission of any details about pricing.
